I make a killer darter i simply copied a 3oz wooden musso.made it out of hard maple an it swims pissa.6 inches no weight.i put one up on the MAC auction and should be in the next bunch on SOL.I drill the front line tie hole down an then pick it up from the rear it makes it a pain to wire but after i epoxie it in it never comes loose or pulls up.This is important as many i have seen an fished with come out of tune very easily an don't work well after a few fish.the reason i don't do many is the hard maple is really hard an I'm to lazy to constantly sharpen my tools as they gotta be razor sharp to do the right job.If u wanna see how its done right I suggest u win the bid when the auction comes up.Might sound cockey but i just copied the way another one of the many masters designs an did it the way he did.
